Good luck tomorrow! HW 237 SW 229 CW 165

Hello everyone, It's my first post, but I've been lurking around since before the surgery. I think now I'm ready to share my progress. I had my sleeve on March 9, 2018. Highest weight 236. Surgery weight 229. I had surgery through Kaiser in LA by the greatest Dr. Um. Everything went well. It took a couple solid weeks for my incisions to heal, but after that it was a piece of cake. Everything went down fine and no problems at all. Now I'm almost 7 months post-op, almost 65 pounds down. Current weight 167.5 I feel great, look great.. still want to lose about 15 pounds. The dress on the photo is the same but was adjusted for fit new me. As for skin.. ehh.. I wish it would look better, but not the deal breaker! The best decision of my life!!! HW 237 SW 229 CW 216

Hi guys, what's the usual time frame from first phone call "I'm interested in surgery" to the surgery date if you go through insurance? (Assuming you are approved of course) Also, I have Kaiser (LA).. would like to know how hard are they on approving you and the time frame as well. Thank you! Sent from my Pixel (Los Angeles)

I'm sure all will even out and you will look great. Give it some time. It hasn't even been a month yet. Sent from my Pixel using the BariatricPal App

I enjoy being out with friends. My enjoyment just doesn't involve mass quantities of food now. Yes I eat but I find that I'm more involved in the conversation than I've ever been and I feel like I get so much more out of the time that I've spent.How about drinks? Beer, vodka, wine?
